About this file

This is a policy certification form from Louisville Metro Government requiring vendors to comply with Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance Section 112.30, which prohibits certain hiring practices against persons previously convicted of crimes. The certification requires vendors doing business with the city to follow "ban the box" practices by not including questions about criminal history on initial employment applications, unless otherwise required by state or federal law. The policy standards and criminal history compliance are incorporated as part of the evaluation criteria for city contract awards, and Louisville Metro retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or not renew contracts with vendors who fail to comply with these requirements.

The ordinance includes seven specific exceptions where the ban-the-box requirements do not apply, including positions involving transfer and handling of cash amounts exceeding $500, access to confidential information that could enable identity theft, unsupervised access to minors under 16 or vulnerable adults, unsupervised access to residents' homes, positions required by law to conduct background checks, situations where federal/state/local law prohibits hiring individuals with felonies, and sole source contracts with Louisville Metro Government. Vendors must sign the certification affirming compliance with LMCO 112.30 or indicate which exceptions apply to their business operations, with the understanding that the city's enforcement provisions will apply to the certification.

(2) The standards established in this chapter and the criminal history policies shall be a part of the evaluation criteria when awarding City contracts. The City shall retain at all times the authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate or not renew a contract with a vendor for failing to comply with the standards established in this section.
